Tortoise HG.
Who says Software doesn't have any tools? There's another tool I find entertaining, but he doesn't like it when I call him that. (Only joking, don't worry!) |
Re: Your favorite/most useful tool?
I think my name makes it obvious :)
i guess the jigsaw comes at a distance second ;) |
Re: Your favorite/most useful tool?
A Multi-Allen wrench and a socket wrench will solve all you'r problems...

Re: Your favorite/most useful tool?
A mouse for CAD. Everybody knows it's impossible to use CAD software without one. :)

My favorite is a tough choice between the hacksaw and the file. I can't decide. I used both to make this when I was a freshman in high school....35 years ago.... |
Re: Your favorite/most useful tool?
Jigsaw.
It can do straight cuts, unique curves, large diameter holes in wood, metal, pvc, polycarb with dozens of styles of blades that are easier to change than a bandsaw, and still fit in a briefcase. |
Re: Your favorite/most useful tool?
My SOG Powerlock Multitool, something about having pliers, a v-cutter (think for cutting seatbelts, so works well on rope, plastic bags of bolts, zipties, fabric etc), small wood saw, file and screwdrivers at short notice is nice.

Call me kooky, but a well rested mind/brain

Re: Your favorite/most useful tool?
A file, when everything else goes wrong I can always enjoy mindless filing of edges...

CNC Machine, preferably a Haas.

Re: Your favorite/most useful tool?
My favorite tool would have to be our teams horizontal/vertical band saw. We picked it up at Harbor Freight. That thing will seriously cut through anything and is very durable. Only problem is that its really heavy. But the benefits out weigh the negatives.
My favorite tool that i use outside of robotics and also in robotics is my DeWalt cordless reciprocating saw. Its 18V of raw power and can chop through anything that i have put it up against. |
Re: Your favorite/most useful tool?
I'll also second the pneumatic pop-riveter. Last year we picked up a foot-shear and finger brake (not as dangerous as they sound!) to do sheet metal work, they built most of our bot this year.
Another must have for anyone working with sheet metal are step drills. Of all the tools though I really couldn't live without the shop broom... |
Re: Your favorite/most useful tool?
Wago, wirecutter/crimps, and a soldering iron. And my camera. :)
